Synopsis

In the current age, digital technologies are increasingly becoming part of modern education provision and practice, with the potential to revolutionize education for the better. However, there are concerns regarding equity and diversity in digital education, with many individuals and communities being left behind. Implementing Inclusive Educational Models and Technologies for Equity and Diversity addresses the existing gaps in the literature on equity and inclusion through educational technology. The book provides a comprehensive reference source for researchers, students, and professors interested in improving education through the integration of technology. Implementing Inclusive Educational Models and Technologies for Equity and Diversity covers a wide range of topics, including mobile and blended learning, global education, open education, and critical factors in distance education. It also delves into implementation considerations such as case studies in primary, secondary, vocational training, and higher education. Theoretical and pedagogical concerns are also explored, with a focus on teaching and learning strategies and tactics, gamification of learning, collaborative learning, and communication and feedback design. This book also addresses technological concerns such as intelligent user interfaces, interactive e-learning systems, personalized learning environments, multimedia applications for e-learning, and online learning infrastructures and architectures. Additionally, the book discusses ethical and sociological concerns, including accessibility for users with diverse disabilities, bullism, equity concerns, and e-impact learning's impact on social change. Moreover, the book tackles issues that are specific to rural education in the United States, such as politics, religion, the school-to-prison pipeline, teacher shortages and licensure issues, early childhood education, special education, and teacher shortages in Native schools. Implementing Inclusive Educational Models and Technologies for Equity and Diversity is an essential reference source that provides empirical research findings and an overview of the relevant field of study. This publication offers a unique opportunity to reflect on the crucial issue of inclusion and equity in the context of educational improvements and paves the way for further research opportunities in this dynamic and growing field.
